    Help needed here.......

    Thought this would be somewhat easy but. When we were down at the Naval Museum the other week in Pensacola, wanted to pick up a N3N (preferred the seaplane version) for my wifes dad who used to work on them.

    Not-to-be-found................and lookign on the internet I'm not sure what is good and what is garbage.

    If anyone can point me towards a decent model, or, free standing assembled I'd very much appreciate it.

    Thanks,
    BobR

    Bob, I don't know of any diecasts -- the N3N has always gotten much less attention than the Stearman N2S -- but a Polish company named Karaya makes some 1/72 scale resin kits of the Yellow Peril.

    This fellow distributes them in the states. I've dealt with him at national modelers' conventions and he is reputable.
